Rumor has it that Paul Church, the Colonel Doctor in charge of the research facility, has been running tests to determine what makes the Aliens tick and that he's using Colonial Marines as bait. Well, the US Government doesn't like rumors - they like facts. And so they've sent Colonel Doctor Anthony Crespi to investigate.
This story fits perfectly within the Alien universe. It is harsh, unforgiving, nature at it's most brutal. The characters are either relatable or believable, and enough backstory is given to take you deeper into the plot and at the same time want more. I remember reading this one for the first time at a bookstore right around the year 2000 and it has stuck with me since. It is pure horror without the jump scares. The plot isn't perfectly unique, but every word and illustration is service to a spectacularly told story.
